It’s probably an overpay, but not as much as it seems on first glance. The three prospects are, a smallish middle6 left shot winger and two depth defencemen, one LD and one RD. The 1st helps, but understand, Carlo is a finished product, ready to contribute for a lot of years. He’s been a top4 defenceman since he was 19. He was a 2nd round pick, but a successful pick that in a redraft will be placed much higher. Consider him a 1st round pick that dropped into Boston’s lap. The first and the prospects probably is close in value, but not enough to entice Boston to trade Carlo. The 2nd and 3rd make it an overpay, but that doesn’t make Boston accept.
Boston fans would know better than me, but are you guys ready to trade off an important piece for prospects and picks, even if it’s an overpay?
